The complexity of evaluating chance constraints makes chance-constrained programming problem difficult to solve. One way to handle this complexity is by devising satisficing measures for the relevant uncertainties. This paper focuses on solving the stochas ...
Concern related to sustainability and greenhouse gases has grown among citizens as well as firms, which are increasingly committing to carbon emission reduction targets. However, firms' emissions come from direct and indirect sources, and from the differen ...
Using a participatory simulation platform, this paper investigates the inventory replenishment decisions made under different trust categories. Depending on the type of trust (trust in supplier versus trust in customer) and level of trust (high versus low) ...
In this paper, we analyze the emerging retail practice of carrying a combined product assortment consisting of both regular "standard" products and more fashionable and short-lived "special" products. The purpose of this practice is to increase store traff ...
This paper examines the financial consequences that inventory leanness has on firm performance. We conduct an econometric analysis using 4324 publicly traded US manufacturing companies for the period 1980-2008. Using an instrumental variable fixed effects ...
This thesis examines the impact of inventory manager’ trust on their replenishment decision. We conduct this study in the experimental environment and design an experiment with unknown market demand, local information, and under continuous replenishment re ...
While traditional research in operations management has focused on mathematical models for improving the flow of physical goods and information, this dissertation takes a quantitative empirical approach. With three distinct research projects it revisits ce ...
Working capital restrictions can have disruptive effects on the coordination of the operations and finances of a company. Working capital restrictions may limit the inventory ordering power, reduce revenues, and increase the use of high premium debt. It ma ...
We study the location-inventory problem in three-level supply networks. Our model integrates three decisions: the distribution centers location, flows allocation, and shipment sizes. We propose a nonlinear continuous formulation, including transportation, ...
